in the fbi, there's no computer system inside the cia or the fbi that's connected to the internet. they're completely different systems. everybody at the cia knows you cannot put classified information inside public e-mail addresses. it just doesn't happen. the director, the rest of it -- yeah, there's a slight chance that someone could get some inside scoop on the director. but blackmail, come on, no. this guy's disciplined. he's smart, except for this affair. but he knows what he's doing. so the chances of actually getting into his e-mail and getting secrets are very remote. >> yeah. >> remote to none. >> because he had an affair doesn't mean he's not smart. he was vulnerable in that particular -- >> no, no. people succumb to it. he did. it's a tragedy. he was a great general. it's a tragedy for everybody concerned. i think frankly these things should just be kept quiet and people deal with it quietly. but i'm saying there's something else that we don't know that forced the urgency on this. and i'm very curious to see what it is. >> bob, we have to leave it there. thank you. appr

the fbi has its own protocols in terms of how they proceed. and, you know, i'm iffing to let director mueller and others examine those protocols and make some statements to the public general. i do topt emphasize that general petraeus had an extraordinary career. he served this country with great distinction in iraq, afghanistan, and as head of the cia. business hen own assessment, he did not meet the standards that he felt were necessary as the director of the cia with respect to this personal matter that he is now dealing with his family and with his wife, and it's on that basis that he tendered his resignation and it's on that basis that i accepted it. but i want to emphasize that from my perspective at least he has provided this country an extraordinary service. we are safer because of the work that david petraeus has done, and my hope right now is that he and his family are able to move on and that this ends up being a single side note on what has otherwise been an extraordinary career. again, i think you're going to have to talk to the f
